SAFE HAVEN LIBYA
National Trade Integrity Infrastructure
2
Current Challenges in Libyan Imports
- Abuse of Letters of Credit and over-invoicing
- Fictitious beneficiaries and weak contract-inspection links
- Evidence created only after damage occurs
- Economic crime investigated too late
3
Paradigm Shift: Prevention by Design
- From reactive enforcement to preventive system design
- Verified actors, fixed contracts, independent inspection
- Transparent shipping and automatic evidence creation
- Crime becomes unattractive before it starts
4
What SAFE HAVEN Is (and Is Not)
- IS: National integrity infrastructure and preventive control
- IS: Technical execution system with court-admissible evidence
- IS NOT: Bank, fintech, or law-enforcement body
- Clear distinction is non-negotiable
5
Institutional Roles: Clear & Sovereign
- Public Prosecutor: Legal oversight, no operational role
- Customs Authority: Full sovereign decision power
- Central Bank of Libya: Optional policy-level transparency
- SAFE HAVEN supports, not replaces institutions
6
Who Can Participate: Trade ID
- All participants must be verified (importers, suppliers, etc.)
- Verification includes legal entity and UBO checks
- Sanctions & risk screening mandatory
- No Trade ID → no participation
7
End-to-End Secure Trade Flow
- Trade ID verification to National Evidence Vault
- Contractual lock-in and independent inspection
- Secure shipping, customs pre-clearance, NII
- One transaction, one evidence chain
8
Independent Inspection & Competition
- Pre-shipment inspections by accredited firms
- No loading without approval
- Multiple providers allowed (SGS, TÜV, etc.)
- Transparent digital tendering process
9
Customs & NII Integration
- Verified data provided before arrival
- No system decisions or automated release
- NII scan images linked to contract & shipping
- All authority remains with Libyan Customs
10
Evidence by Default
- Evidence generated automatically, no manual compilation
- Stored in tamper-proof national data center
- Full chain of custody maintained
- Evidence exists even if no investigation occurs
11
Pilot Project: Purpose & Scope
- Prove operational feasibility and prepare institutions
- Validate procedures and train national staff
- Initial focus: Medical supplies, selected ports
- Preparation for national roll-out, not experiment
12
Scalability: Built In
- Additional commodities and ports can be added
- Nationwide coverage without redesign
- Same rules and evidence quality at scale
- No system break during expansion
13
Commercial Logic
- CAPEX: Upfront / milestone-based
- OPEX: Compliance & integrity service fees
- No percentage of LC values or FX exposure
- Transparent, auditable, predictable costs
14
Strategic Impact for Libya
- Reduction of economic crime and protection of public funds
- Faster compliant imports and strong deterrence effect
- Judicially robust evidence and institutional strengthening
- Integrity becomes structural, not selective
15
